Strellleeee engane adipoli aay corner chyam enn oru video chyuo kore perk usefull aavum😉
Please do a touring review on NS 200 bs6
You missed the information about night ride & visibility
Hey man.. Is Apache RR310 a good bike to tour.. Or what bike would you recommend for touring under RS. 3L .. Thanks.. N great going bro 🤜❤
Why do many people complain about the 6th gear, gear ratios are more important, a taller 5th gear ratio corresponding to the Torque output is enough.
FINALLY!! someone with proper knowledge.
Yes ❤️
@Ram v Liquid Cooling has nothing to do with gear ratios. Cooling has to happen even in other gears.
built quality does not look premium in compare to yamaha or ktm.main stand does not look sporty.looks like platina main stand.looks like company ne adhe man se banaya hai.paint quality on engine does not look superior or premium.not a punchy design to the engine.does not look 200 cc engine.doesnt look like built to last.wheels also does not look premium.does not justify the price of dedh lakh.bas dooro ne price badhaya toh inhone bhi badha diya
@@allangomes2416 You are getting Dual Channel ABS, Slipper Clutch, Bluetooth connectivity, on engine they have used powder coating thats why it looks different. Plus you are getting lot more when compared to Japanese and Austrian Competition. KTM and Yamaha is one step ahead and it costs way more thn " Dedh lakh"
I was bored so I watched your old videos.
There is a hell lot of improvement in your English.
You are one of the best motor reviewer I've seen.
Bought an Rtr200 Bs6. Excellent smoothness, comfort, pickup and mileage.
Is it comfortable for a pillion sitting sideways
@@techcastell17 My bike is yet to be fitted with a sidewise ladies footrest, as the part was not available and the showroom has promised to fit it when it comes.
If the ladies footrest is kept, pillion can sit sideways without much issues for short distances (but rider should avoid racy pickups and high speeds).
What mileage are you getting? in city and in highway?
I had an RTR 180 from 2011 to 2016. I used it mainly for inter-city rides within Tamil nadu. I would ride it at a stretch for up to 100 or 150 kms . I did stuff like Trichy-Madurai and back, Trichy- Coimbatore and back. It was also comfortable on B roads around Trichy. I could ride it all day at speeds of around 90- 100 kmph all day. I followed maintenance schedules very strictly. The bike NEVER failed in the middle of the road.
I had covered 450 kms in one single day.
Finally I had to sell it as I got in financial trouble.
The local dealer here in Trichy, Shriraj motors were , and still are , up to the mark.
I would buy another TVS bike for the brand as well s the dealer Shriraj motors.
Which bike has a better intial pull 180 rtr 2v or 200 4v
@@Topd-eb7qv I have ridden only the RTR 180 - 2009 VERSION. I did not ride for Speed. I was interested only in touring distances like 200 km to 500 km. I did not get to sex any motorcycle for the past eight years.
I was very much satisfied with my RTR 180 .
Can we ride 100km with pillion. Is pillion comfort ok?
@@shijinrejiabraham6806 in 2011, I did one trip from Trichy to Madurai and back with my friend on the pillion. I was able to maintain speeds of 90 km per hour. My friend complained about knuckle pain as he had to grab the Grab rail very hard.
I have bought this bike on November 2020. Recently I drove from Bangalore to Palakkad (400 kms)at night. I started around 10 pm and reached by 5 am. Just to mention this bike is epic for touring, especially for beginners. Some Pros and Conns :-
Pros:
1. Excellent rider seat. No back pain at all.
2. Good headlight , powerful enough to see the entire highway.
3. Acceleration is linear and not aggressive. This is good if you are a beginner.
4. Front brake is very good. Back brake is average
5. No vibration till 110 kmph. Ideal cruising speed 90-100kmh.
6. Very less impact if you accidently jump into a pothole.
7. Good riding position. Rider seat is long enough to shift back and forth while driving.
8. Sport mode is really good while touring. ( Try acceleration aggressively in urban and sport mode to feel the difference).
9. Full Tank is sufficient for 400 kms.
Cons:
1. Back brake should be improved. While cruising above 110kmph it takes lot of time to reduce the speed.
2. Max speed I got was 127Kmph. Considerable vibration and poor braking at high speeds.
3. Side drifting is there when overtaking a large vehicle.
bro what is the situation when we have a pillion?, what about service and spare parts availability
Bro what is side drifting?
@@harieaswaran8979 velya vandiye overtake cheyumbol kaatu pidich lane maarunna oru feel.
@@ancygeorge4298 Thanks bro eniku thonni athu thanne aano ennu confirm cheyan patti. Thanks.
Should not use rear brake at high speed lol. Pro riders never ever use rear brake.
6:01 he is more concerned about his hand rather than his head🤣
I have actually taken this bike on touring last year, just one thing that i would disagree with you is on the seating comfort. I personally didnt like the seat cusioning on this motorcycle and it felt quite hard and i ended up having a sore butt after about 90 kms, by the end of my ride which was a total of 300 kms, the seating comfort was a torture. Otherwise, yes i would totally agree with you that this is a good touring motorcycle for beginners.
And nice video..... Cheers!!
that's not a thing to complaint because it's a naked bike, usually naked bikes do have hard seats and hard suspensions to have good control over the corners. However, a seat cushion will solve the problem.
My Experience was different. I took BS4 version on rent and rode for 500 KM over 2 days. No pain on shoulders and back.
Comfort is smetme change dpnds on person
Bhai teri aukat hai platina ki aur yuhi befaltu khudko bohot gyani batara hai iss bike ke bare me chal mai ye tk sure hu ki tere pass ye gadi hogi hi nhi vrna maine itne reviews dekhe hai sab log apache ke seat ko sabse jyada comfortable batate hai tu hi ulte lavde ka hai.....GAND CHECK KARALE BHAI TERI🙏🙏
@@phabove7 he was talking about the butt
For luggage- I have used many times a normal backpack, the kind we used to take to school and put the straps across the tank extensions. Once placed just ensure that it’s not hindering your handle movement .
This was the video i have been waiting for so long.
Great work.
Thanks Man..!!
Hi Bro.. Just got my new RTR 2004v - Matte blue, I loved it. Your videos are very helpful 👍.. Keep doing the hardwork
how is the bike bro, i also have booked the matt blue
Any discomfort while long rides?
Subscribed channel when you had 18k subscribers..... You've earned it man...good wishes
Thank you :)
The sky and the road beautifully complemented the bike!! Thanks for the review.
Wonderfully explained about sustainable cruising speeds which is more important for touring and highway rides.
I own a BS IV iteration of the same bike , just feel the lack of a 6th gear else it is quite good
How much average give your bike ???
40 to 42
So you didn’t test ride the bike before buying.
@@debmalyapal6936 same here bro..... 40 to 42 kmpl
I'm getting around 34 to 35.... Mostly ride on open roads , I do not face much traffic in my rides.
Thank you for doing this video now I am all sorted about this bike. And I am a beginner so hopefully will enjoy riding it. Thanks Man
You guys need to understand one thing ...seat space moving your butt in the seat is the most importantly thing for touring...unless your one of those chaps who thinks touring is a sunday ride for breakfast of 100km.
Is this strell dude unaware of it
Practical reviews like this are always appreciated! Well done
Strell uiyree ❤️
Like always ❤️❤️❤️ strell❤️❤️❤️
Waiting for 2.0 Hornet review
Me too ✌
Yes
🔥
I am also
Same here
This is one of the best touring mechine... ❣️
Malayalam review kanditt ivideyum vannavar undo 😆
Yes
Hoping this bike arrives to Mexico, greets, great video my friend (:
The sky while recording though!
Can you do a TOURING REVIEW on Avenger 220 Cruise.?!! I sincerely feel that "it's one of the most underrated motorcycle" in India.
Yes we can but it's somewhat difficult in traffic for a tall guy
Is this review still relevant for the current model of Apache 200 4v 2024. Your videos have just the right content i am looking for but from a different year😅.
Strellism
Hi bro...was a very useful video...loved your review...
and ,
whats the overall rating u can give for this bike in 200cc out of 10 ?
I will rate 8/10 for my usage of touring :)
@@iamstrell tanx bro
thaks a lot man!!! your videos are so so special
😭 Im Love with the voice of apche 160 4v after 50 to 70 its sound gets too gud ❤️ 😭
😭😭
😭😭
😂😂
Which should I prefer to buy for city rides on regular days and a long trip every 1-2 months?
1. Yamaha MT15
2. Apache 160 4v
3. Apache 200 4v
and what if both performance and mileage both are a priority?
Apache 200 4V easy. MT 15 is too uncomfortable for any long trip, even with the 2022 version
Hornet 2.0nte review ഒന്ന് ചെയ്യാവോ?
Mallu traveller proved its touring capabilities. Its a great indian bike.
Strell please ....... do a review of Ns 200 bs6💕
I'm confused to buy that machine
Awesome review. Booking the bike this week!!!!!
Best 200 cc... best Sound, Seating and Handle Position.. Pickup..Mileage.. Stability..engine refinement.. on road or off road no problem
Finally😍 watched this highway review 👍.
TVS should re-design 200NV Apache as Adventure Tourer bike as it can be light entry level Tourer bike and will be affordable n fuel efficient
I guess they will be launching beginner tourer bike with 280cc entry level in biking sector .. for sure in coming years
Bro.... Waiting for the review of the ns200 bs6 version will you be making one??????
Me too
Already done
Well, I bought its younger sibling, 160 4v. And it has nearly the same ergonomics as this bike. Very comfortable as much I travelled over 600 km/day on it, multiple times. And this 200 cc engine is a gem.
I own 4v...but does not like the way the bike handle while talking u turn...handle compelete does not turn
@@avcreations7991 yes, but it is the case with most of the bikes in this category... Sculpted tanks hinder full range of movement of handlebars. Workaround is to lean bike a little while turning.
@@madeeasyfinance any benefit of this new handler bar ? Before 4v i know 2v and it was vry easy in uturn
@@avcreations7991 actually, 2v has a clip on handlebar, just like 200 4v. They are shorter, hence a little lesser turning radius. You can get it changed on your 160 4v to clip-ons but it will not be worth the money. Or there is a work around. for that you have to do 2 things. Firstly, get your handle bars on 160 4v raised a little.
@@avcreations7991 Secondly, see the centre clamp just below your headlight assembly. There are two welding nodes on its either side, which decide the max range of handle movement. You could get them rewelded a little further on either side, with a help from an 'experienced' welder. but keep it in mind that both steps need to be collectively, not a single one of either of them.
I recently did a 1000 Kms Road trip on the BS IV iteration of this bike.
These are my comments on this bike's touring capabilities.
1. Ideal crusing speed would be 85kmph where you would still get a good acceleration up to 110kmph.
2. Surprisingly, my bike delivered me a mileage of 41kmpl.
3. Seats are really comfortable.
4. The brakes are amazing.. Especially, the dual channel ABS was a lifesaver for me.
5. Sometimes, I have felt this bike deserved a 6th gear.
06:36 ഓവർ ടേക്ക് ചെയ്ത് പോകുന്നത് നമ്മുടെ hunk ആണല്ലോ... 🥰🥰💓
Thnx for your video.. bro.. actually for me 6th gear is not much mandatory as 5th gear is enough..
with this touring review Apache RTR 200 4VBS6 will be in high demand..👍
Does it really have a “plastic tank” ?
If you are given a choice of RTR and NS for a 600 kilometers Highway tour which one will you take and why?
Superb bro . Love from Nepal 🇳🇵❤️
Waiting for a ns200 bs6 review .
Strell etta this is Strellism love you broooo...
First time watched your video, I agree on all your points but disagree on the seat comfort. After 60 to 70 km you will get a sore Butt. But it was nice video after all, keep up the good work.
Sir please inform if you faced any heating issue at high speed.
Awesome video gave a lot of required info in short time!!
That mallu accent 😅💪 nice review bro .
This is best for budget tourer

Have you applied any color grading? The clouds look so delicious
You are just a excellent reviewer..Want to see more reviews from you.
I have RTR 200 4V Bs4 model bought it for 1.04lakhs delhi in feb 2017. Already done delhi-ladakh circuit with pillon, delhi-agra, Delhi-Bihar. I would rate it 9/10 in terms of comfort and performance, i easily get 35-40kmpl mileage in city and 40+ in highway, The most important point you have to remember is its really well balanced while you are crusing at 80-100 km, Trust me for beginers its the best touring bike.
I like the way you speak
who all are waiting for mojo and hornet 2.0.!!!!!!!!!!! strell bro will u upload this video in mal channel
Classic 350 or RTR 200
Which is best?
If you want better cruising speed then use shorter sprocket at the rear.. tvs has put a massively big sprocket which decreases top speed..
strell is it good for beginner's and aslo a good for touring.?
Over all review is good like always
And can you review ntorq 125
Honda hornet 2.0 review cheyammo?? Plzz
Was wishing for ur review on this bike🤩 n got it
Thanks for the review👍🙂
Please compare it with fz 25 bs6
For touring..which could be a better choice for touring?
Bro Hornet 2.0 ❤️Review pls ..
Nice video . Please do a comparison between RTR 200 4v VS NS 200 for touring purpose .. 😊
Brother i have apache rtr 200 4v bs4 2017 non abs, is it still good for touring in This days???
Super I'm gonna buy her 🤩 and waiting for Hornet 2.0 Review 🤓 Anyway You're Good man Keep it up 👍
I am 6ft and i drove this bike for few months. I also did touting for different locations aroung kolkata. It was amazing
Thanks Strell for the information rich review. But I want to ask you about high speed cruising you mentioned. In India the legal speed for even 4 wheelers on express higways like Yamuna expressway is 100 kmph only. So where we can cruise on a teo wheeler at 130-140? 100-110 is enough I guess. Isn't it?
Proud owner of BS4 version!
Very nice and well rounded bike for city roads and bike trips. I have covered maximum of 600 -700 km in one trip and performance is amazing.
Easy to ride and comfortable seats.
Milage in 90 to 110 nro
Big fan for your reviews...❤
Very helpful review. Thanks
such a niceeeeeeeeeeee video, will it be better in comparison with ns200 ?
Appreciate your no non-sense videos. Waiting for fzs25 review. Keep riding buddy.
Thanks a lot.I am going for this one😊
Nice video. Can you please do a video on safety aspects while riding on highways/city roads?
Love u alot bro tq for this touring review
Bro can you please do a video comparing rtr 200 bs4 and bs6 versions...Big fan from Kerala ( Thrissur )

What you did at 2:52, if a motorcycle does that excessively and aggressively, the jerking upon cutting throttle, what probably causes that? And how do I explain that to someone? Like to a mechanic, and a sound individual.
choppy throttle sometimes leads to stress during touring because the whole bike gives a sudden movement. Gradual throttle is always better in top gear.
Road to heaven looking like
Tenth time asking for the bs6 Duke 250 review. 🙏
Hey @strell, Between MT15 and RTR 200 BS6, which one would you ride with luggage to Spiti valley or Tawang, from Bengaluru?
Really helpful 👍
Can you make a video on benelli 302s
Compare with mt15 which one is better bro in terms of engine smooth and refinement?
How is the suspension feed back front and rear
This is the video in looking for .. you got a new subscriber. Keep up the same
